“We really enjoyed staying at Cranny Cottage.”

It was very handy for the high street and local restaurants. 15 minutes walk from the Harbour. The house is very well equipped and comfortable and the bathroom is beautiful. There are plenty of books, games, jigsaws and DVDs. We highly recommend this cottage

Catherine March 2024

“This is the second time we have stayed at Canny Cottage.”

It is very comfortable, extremely well equipped and spotlessly clean. The owners have thought of everything that you might need and it really is a home from home cottage. Amble is a friendly town and the location makes it ideal for exploring Northumberland. We went up to Bamburgh and Holy Island one day, visited various beaches on other days and went to Morpeth on the bus one day to save driving and parking. It is a lovely part of the country and we will definitely return soon.

- Catherine, March 2024
Andrew March 2024

“Canny Cottage is perfect in every way, so clean and comfortable and superbly equipped.”

Amble is lovely too with plenty to see and do. I would highly recommend this property for a fantastic holiday.

Ann February 2024

“Another wonderful holiday in this beautiful cottage!”

We certainly found a little gem of a cottage when we first came last November and have just enjoyed our second visit. The cottage is so well equipped, immaculately clean and comfortable and a welcome pack to get you started! The owners also go above and beyond by providing dish washer and washing machine tablets/pods, washing up liquid and hand wash in kitchen and bathroom and salt and pepper, oil and vinegar plus many other bits and pieces, Thank you Barbara! A great base in Amble to visit all our favourite places up and down the beautiful coastline. We have already booked again for November this year and February next year so that speaks volumes!

Helen December 2023

“We had a fantastic New Year stay at Canny Cottage.”

It was very clean, warm and comfortable and one of the best equipped cottages we have ever stayed in. It had been decorated for Christmas and looked wonderful ! The gift of eggs, milk, biscuits and fizz (which we enjoyed on New Year's Eve) was very welcome. The cottage is only a few minutes walk from the shops and lovely harbour and marina and there is a Morrisons about a 10 minute walk away. We walked into Warkworth twice which is a gorgeous little place and ate at the Hermitage Inn which was very friendly and food good. We walked very briskly and it took us about half an hour. We were very lucky with the weather and managed to get out every day, only using the car once to go to Alnwick. All in all a fantastic holiday in a fantastic cottage !

- Helen, December 2023
Joanne December 2023

“Lovely, well equipped holiday home in a quiet, residential area of Amble.”

The owners have provided everything required to make it a home from home. Large, comfortable rooms, especially the bathroom which has the benefit of a walk in shower. Conveniently located for local shops and harbour and for travelling to other Northumberland sites and castles on the coastal route.

- Joanne, December 2023
Ruth December 2023

“Canny Cottage is an extremely comfortable, well equipped property.”

For a short break in December it was perfect - warm and cosy. It had everything we could possibly need so we have booked to return again next year.

- Ruth, December 2023

Paul November 2023

“The cottage location was perfect and it was also beautifully clean and fully equipped with everything we could possibly need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.”

Special mention for the large, modern and spacious kitchen and bathroom. We have booked another week in February 2024 and very much looking forward to it.

- Paul, November 2023
Maggie November 2023

“Beautiful cottage, great facilities, extremely clean & well presented; bathroom is amazing.”

Loved it so much, I booked the cottage again for April.

Suzanne October 2023

“Lovely property, had everything we needed for our stay.”

Absolutely spotless. Really comfy beds. Great location. Lovely owner who checked to make sure that everything was ok on our arrival. Will definitely be back.

- Suzanne, October 2023
David September 2023

“Well equipped, very clean and comfortable accommodation in an ideal location.”

The property description was very accurate and the owners provided lots of helpful information both before arrival and in the accommodation. Being able to park off road and immediately outside was much appreciated. Having the access and parking space measurements in advance meant that we knew our Skoda Karoq would fit, although anything much larger might not. The owners provided two mobile numbers in case we had any issues while there. David & Jill

- David, September 2023

“One of the best properties we have stayed at and we will be going AGAIN”

- Caroline, July 2023
Tracy July 2023

“Our 4th time staying at Canny Cottage & it was just as good as the 1st time!”

Well appointed, very clean accommodation with a few welcome extras that you don’t always get in other self-catering accommodation (washing up liquid, hand soap etc.) Only a short stroll from Amble Harbour & Queen Street with their shops, bars & restaurants. Off-road parking is a bonus, especially when it gets busier in Amble. We wouldn’t stay anywhere else now when visiting Northumberland!

- Tracy, July 2023
Tracy June 2023

“This was our second stay at Canny Cottage and it wont be our last.”

It's in a perfect location, with all amenities a short stroll away. It's very well equipped with everything you need, spotlessly clean and very comfortable beds. Definitely 10/10

- Tracy, June 2023
Alan May 2023

“Second time we have stayed at canny cottage the location, cleanliness and comfort of the cottage are Second to none.”

We will definitely be returning for another visit

- Alan, May 2023
Rona April 2023

“Wonderful holiday cottage.”

Everything we could need and nothing overlooked. The welcome tray was a lovely thought and a very detailed booklet is there to advise how everything works. Bed very comfy, kitchen very well equipped and a bathroom which would take some beating. No complaints whatsoever and would definitely recommend (which I've already done). "Canny" is an understatement, "Fabulous " would be more appropriate.

- Rona, April 2023
John April 2023

“What a great place.”

Our second stay here and really enjoyed it. Excellent location with parking. Quiet street, clean, well equipped cottage with everything you might need. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you.

- John, April 2023
Christine April 2023

“We had such a great stay,everything in the cottage was so clean, comfortable,all we needed,the best cottage we have stayed in.”

Just a bit tight for us to get car on drive,but we did! Only 9 mins to walk from cottage to harbour,shorter distance to shops. Owners provided all you need for a stay in a cottage,just so lovely. Amble is such a lovely place to stay especially at the weekend the markets are on.Thankyou.

- Christine, April 2023
Michael April 2023

“Canny Cottage is clean, well maintained, has modern facilities and really helpful owners.”

It is in a central location and is our favourite spot on the north east coastline. Highly recommended.

- Michael, April 2023
Catherine March 2023

“We couldn't fault this property at all.”

It is probably the best equipped holiday home we have stayed in. The location was great as we could walk around Amble without needing to use the car. Amble is a good base for exploring Northumberland and we visited Holy Island amongst other places during our stay. It is also great for walking to Warkworth and along the coastal footpaths. All in all we had a lovely week and would definitely stay at Canny Cottage again.

- Catherine, March 2023
Paul March 2023

“This is a fantastic cottage in a great location for exploring the Northumberland coast.”

I have nothing bad to say. The cottage was just like a home from home. It was extremely clean, very well equipped, two good sized double bedrooms in fact one is a king size and the other a twin that can be made up as a super king size. The bathroom is fabulous. The kitchen has everything you need. I was a little concerned about the parking situation from the description given on Sykes as it sounded like you could only park a small car there. We have a Nissan Qashqai and I managed to park it ok. The cottage is a short walk from the main street and harbour in Amble where there are some nice eateries and pubs. We also stumbled across the Amble Inn which is just out of Amble great value for money. This was our first time to Northumberland and we loved it. Stunning coastline and Canny Cottage was just perfect for my wife and I. Would certainly stay there again.

- Paul, March 2023
Andrew January 2023

“Superb property which includes everything you may possibly need for a perfect stay.”

Highly recommended.

- Andrew, January 2023
Roy January 2023

“A charming place to stay.”

The bathroom is bigger than the one at home! The Kitchen is well equipped if you need to eat in. Convenient for centre of Amble. An advantage of the property is the parking spot, as the Street is quite narrow. There are plenty of places to eat out and some good places to walk and visit.

- Roy, January 2023
Ian January 2023

“A really nice house.”

Clean and tidy with everything you could need for a stay. Good communication with owners before arrival and good information pack in the house. Parking is tight, but with care, managed to park a Focus Estate in the parking area. Would definitely stay here again.

- Ian, January 2023
Mark December 2022

“We had a lovely New Year stay at Canny Cottage, it was very comfortable and spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our stay, the kitchen was well equipped with a few essentials provided on arrival which is always welcome.”

The bathroom is spacious and has a large separate shower as well as the lovely free standing bath. Large front bedroom with a very comfortable king-size bed. Pre-arrival information was useful and informative. Others have mentioned the parking and yes it is a little tight but unless you have a large 4x4 you should have no difficulty, I was easily able to reverse our Ford Focus into the parking area. The cottage is a 5 minute walk to the nearest Co-op and there’s a Tesco express another 2 minutes down the road. The Wellwood Arms is just round the corner and worth a visit. Easy walk to Warkworth, and Alnmouth is only a short drive away for trains to Edinburgh (an hours journey) if you fancy going further afield. I very much recommend a stay at Canny Cottage.

- Mark, December 2022
Simon December 2022

“We had a lovely week in Canny Cottage It was very comfortable & clean , with everything that you could think of provided We will recommend this property to our friends and family One of the best we've stayed in !”

- Simon, December 2022
Mike October 2022

“Superb, immaculate, faultless.”

This one of the best,if not the best cottage we have stayed in. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable lounge area, very comfortable bed and a super bathroom with a decent shower and bath sheets not towels, much appreciated. We will definitely return.

- Mike, October 2022
Peter October 2022

“This property’s listing is totally accurate, we were met with a spotlessly clean and comfortable home.”

Warm and cosy, well equipped, lovely brand new bathroom. The housekeeping information was clear and concise with all the expected instructions throughout. Parking was tricky in manoeuvring but we managed it and got used to it by the 2nd day. We ate in 2 Amble restaurants and had a chippy take away from the town too, all of which were very good. Local info was plentiful, do try the Sunday market and huts by the harbour. All in all this was a great little find.

- Peter, October 2022
Alan August 2022

“Fantastic location & lovely cottage.”

- Alan, August 2022
Michael July 2022

“Great accommodation and facilities and a really good location.”

We had one self-inflicted minor issue which the owners were really attentive to and which showed how much they cared that we had a wonderful holiday. Highly recommended.

- Michael, July 2022
Margaret July 2022

“Canny Cottage is absolutely lovely, it has everything you could possibly need during a stay.”

Parking is a luxury in Amble, we had no trouble fitting our Ford Connect in the space. We've already booked Canny Cottage again for next year, we've used Sykes many times and Canny Cottage is the best place we've ever stayed in.

- Margaret, July 2022
Catherine July 2022

“Lovely, quiet spotlessly clean property which was thoroughly equipped managed by thoughtful hosts.”

Highly recommended!

- Catherine, July 2022
Tracy July 2022

“Our 3rd time staying in Canny Cottage.”

Spotlessly clean with all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. The location is very quiet with the bonus of off-street parking and only a couple of minutes walk to Amble’s main street. Pre and post stay communications with the owners were great. We love Amble and will definitely be back to Canny Cottage.

- Tracy, July 2022
Julie May 2022

“A lovely, well appointed cottage only a few mins walk away from the main street.”

A very quiet location with a single lane road outside meant there was no traffic noise either. Everything was spotless and we loved the special touches, like the oversized throws on the sofas. What a bathroom! I can quite honestly say I have never stayed in a holiday let with such a gigantic bathroom with an amazing free standing bath. The kitchen was very well equipped and beds most comfortable. Thanks! We will be back!

- Julie, May 2022
Alan May 2022

“Absolutely wonderful cottage and very helpful owners.”

Situated in quiet part of town but within a few minutes walking distance. Everything you need for your stay was provided in this well equipped accommodation. We are definitely booking again next year.

- Alan, May 2022
Julie May 2022

“Excellent accommodation.”

Spotlessly clean. Very well equipped and comfortable. Quiet location, just a short walk to the harbour. Very good communication with owners.

- Julie, May 2022
Catherine April 2022

“Excellent property ,facilities ,comfort and location we felt quite at home couldn’t ask for anything more every eventuality was covered in the property .”

We had a wonderful relaxing week enjoying the town and harbour of Amble and visiting the local area . Wouldn’t hesitate to book again .

- Catherine, April 2022
Karen April 2022

“A perfect break at Canny Cottage, the house is amazing and absolutely everything has been thought of.”

Such a good location for visiting the area and so many great cafes and restaurants in Amble itself.

- Karen, April 2022
Linda March 2022

“We were very happy with Canny Cottage.”

Probably the best we have ever stayed in. It matched, if not exceeded, our expectations. Communication with the owners was just right both before and after our stay. Amble is a good base for travelling up and down the coast. We were out of high season but it was still quite busy. It's worth planning your visit ahead and booking restaurants, etc before you even get there! Parking at the front of the cottage is a bonus. Check the measurements provided if in doubt. Our Hyundai i20 fitted comfortably.

- Linda, March 2022
Angela March 2022

“Perfect in every way.”

The photographs do not do this property justice;-it is spacious and beautifully appointed, the owners have thought of everything to the last detail to enhance your comfort and experience. I would definitely return.

- Angela, March 2022

Canny Cottage was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and fantastically central for all Amble amenities Lovely comfortable beds, great shower, well equipped kitchen that you could certainly self cater properly Parking space is appreciated, which is not always available in central Amble Would definitely recommend

- Valerie, February 2022
Ellen January 2022

“Lovely comfortable property Gorgeous bathroom Great location Would definitely recommend”

- Ellen, January 2022
John January 2022

“Good Central location but quiet.”

Great base to explore Amble and surrounding area. Really comfortable, clean and well equipped cottage. Parking space is a bonus too. Will definately go back.

- John, January 2022
Lynda December 2021

“I can't praise the cottage or the owners highly enough.”

We honestly couldn't think of one thing that the owners hadn't thought of that would have improved the cottage. It's beautifully furnished with up to date appliances, the most wonderful big modern bathroom and very comfy beds and sofas. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could possibly need, and the owners had even left a hospitality tray and bottle of bubbly in the fridge (we were there for New Year). The owners sent friendly helpful emails before we arrived and even sent a text to thank us for leaving the place clean and tidy and wish us a safe journey home. Id' like to thank them again for a great stay and to say we will be back as soon as we can.

- Lynda, December 2021
Carol December 2021

“The house was very well equipped and extremely comfortable.”

It was also two minutes walk away from the Main Street in Amble. Off street parking was a huge bonus. We were there in low season (13th/18th December) and parking in town was busy. The house was also spotless A credit to the owners

- Carol, December 2021
Andrea October 2021

“Canny Cottage is a lovely homely cosy cottage.”

Lovely and warm as the autumn weather encroaches. This cottage has an extremely well equipped kitchen and beautiful bathroom (great bath).

- Andrea, October 2021
Ann September 2021

“We felt very much at home.”

Loved that the cottage was in the centre of Amble and we could walk to shop and eat out. made use of the information leaflets especially the bus timetables. A great week

- Ann, September 2021
Lesley July 2021

“Canny Cottage was a home from home and very well placed for walking and car access to shops, beaches and harbour.”

We were welcomed with a hospitality tray to get us off to a good start wth scones, biscuits and tea/ coffee making items. The court yard and front garden would have been ideal for sitting out but for the weather, which was unpredictable. It didn't stop us getting out and about, especially beachcombing which our 5 and 7 year old grandchildren love doing.

- Lesley, July 2021
Sue July 2021

“This cottage is exceptional in terms of it’s cleanliness, comfort and facilities.”

Nothing has been left out. It’s position in the lovely town of Amble means you have everything you need for a perfect break in Northumberland, whatever the weather.

- Sue, July 2021
Peter June 2021

“Excellent property, high standard throughout.”

Comfortable, well equipped, spotlessly clean, even has its own parking. A first class property. Our second visit and definitely hope to go again. Amble and the surrounding area are lovely.

- Peter, June 2021
Margaret June 2021

“Ideally placed, just a short walk into the town centre and harbour.”

Close to the bus stop. On site parking, which is unusual in a town setting. A little tight manoeuvre to get into the space, but doable. A very well set out cottage with lots of room. An ideal place to stay.

- Margaret, June 2021
Catherine May 2021

“Very comfortable cottage with everything we needed.”

The bath was amazing after being out walking. Highly recommended.

- Catherine, May 2021
Stephen May 2021

“The location was excellent for us to access the places we wished to visit in the area.”

There were many lovely sites of national interest with both English Heritage and National Trust (of which we are members of both) for us to reach with an easy drive. We were also very happy with its location near a National Rail Station (Alnmouth) for us to travel further distances (we went to Edinburgh).

- Stephen, May 2021
David October 2020

“We have been visiting Northumberland for over 25 years but this is our first stay in |Amble and as a base it was brilliant.”

Easy access to two of our favourite beaches Druridge Bay and Alnmouth. Canny Cottage was lovely, comfortable, spotless and well equipped, we would definitely stay again and have already recommended it to family. We ate at the Hope and Anchor in Alnmouth, which never disappoints but exceeded all expectations on this visit. The chef managed to produce an ice lolly from who knows where to satisfy our three year old granddaughter. We also ate in the Old Boathouse in Amble which also lived up to expectations.

- David, October 2020
Julie September 2020

“I have stayed in lots of cottages and this has got to be one of the best, it was home from home comforts with everything thought of, the beds were lovely and comfortable and everything was finished to a high spec.”

We will definitely be returning again. After reading the previous reviews I thought the parking was going to be a problem but I had no trouble getting parked in front of the cottage.

- Julie, September 2020
Robert September 2020

“In a very central position not far from the town center.”

Has different restaurants and fish and chip shops. The lounge is spacious and a fully equipped kitchen which is a very good size. The bathroom is a good size with big shower, a free standing bath, sink and toilet. Double bedroom has a double wardrobe and chest of drawers for clothes.

- Robert, September 2020
Jackie August 2020

“This was our second stay in Canny Cottage as before it was immaculate we hope to return again Amble is a lovely place to stay with many places we still want to visit.”

- Jackie, August 2020
Keith July 2020

“Canny Cottage was very comfortable and extremely clean.”

As someone who likes to do a bit of cooking on holiday - the kitchen was well equipped, and there was plenty of crockery and cutlery. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was like something from a showroom! It was great to be able to park right outside, and the High Street in Amble was less than 5 minutes walk to pick things up from the shops. The owners; Barbara and Simon, have put a a lot of thought into the cottage, and making it as comfortable and easy to stay in as possible. Amble was a good base for touring - we went to Lindisfarne, Bamburgh, Newcastle, Durham, and Hexham, amongst others. Highly recommended.

- Keith, July 2020
John July 2020

“Not at all.”

Excellent accommodation very clean. Ideal cottage to explore the surrounding areas. Second time at Canny Cottage. Would definitely go again.

- John, July 2020
Alison February 2020

“Our second time at Canny Cottage and it didn’t disappoint.”

It is the most homely and comfortable holiday cottage we have ever stayed in. It is spotlessly clean, a real home from home and it has everything you could possibly need. It is ideally placed for exploring the beautiful Northumberland coastline. We look forward to returning for a third time.

- Alison, February 2020
Janet February 2020

“Amble is a lovely village, quiet and relaxing.”

Canny Cottage really home from home. Situated on a quiet street, very clean area with a lovely community feel. The cottage excelled in everything you needed. Warm and cosy. Some really nice restaurants with good food, Wellwood arms is just a 5 minute walk - superb meals and very friendly helpful staff. We have holidayed in Amble every year over the past 3 years. Definitely recommend Canny Cottage.

- Janet, February 2020
Tracy February 2020

“Our second visit to Canny Cottage.”

A lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Just a couple of minutes walk to Amble’s main street. Off road parking is a bonus. We’ll most certainly be back!

- Tracy, February 2020
Stephen January 2020

“Great location Amble had plenty of places to eat ,drink and shop.”

Your able to visit lots of other places of interest.......all in all was a lovely holiday and would come back if in the area and the cottage been available....

- Stephen, January 2020
Beverley October 2019

“Lovely cottage, beautifully clean, and very well equipped.”

The owners have thought of everything even a little torch in the bedside table. Really quiet and peaceful street, and very quick walk into Amble shops. Superb base for exploring the outstanding Northumberland coast.

- Beverley, October 2019
Michael October 2019

“Our 5th holiday in Northumberland over a few years, our accomodation has always been very good; however Canny Cottage was by far the best in every way.”

Despite being close to the town centre it was very quiet, the cottage was very clean and comfortable all of the equipment was top notch the furnishings were excellent, all in all the cottage contributed massively to our enjoyement of the holiday. Highly recommended.

- Michael, October 2019
Doug September 2019

“Ideally located.”

Shops,restaurants and chippy a short walk away. Beautifully presented cottage. Doug and Val

- Doug, September 2019
Anthony September 2019

“After arriving back home and thinking about the cottage.”

We have given it some thought as not to rush leaving feed back.i deal location.good walks and shops in easy walking distance. one small problem be careful when walking on the decking when its raining.its like a sheet of ice.i slipped over when going to the dustbin and hurt myself. ( it might have been better to put chicken wire down). on top of the decking.

- Anthony, September 2019
Jill July 2019

“The cottage was very well equipped especially the kitchen and spotlessly clean.”

- Jill, July 2019
J May 2019

“Met all our expectations and more.”

Lovely bathroom and nice quality fixtures and fittings. A most enjoyable experience.

- J, May 2019
Eric May 2019

“Canny Cottage is a lovely modern and clean cottage in a quiet area but only few minutes stroll to centre of Amble.”

We wouldn't hesitate to book it again if we return to Amble. The owners seem to have put a lot of thought into facilities in the cottage

- Eric, May 2019
Sue April 2019

“Although there is off street parking it would suit a small car and access was restricted due to a work van parking at the top of the street in the week.”

Having open plan living is fine however being open to the kitchen area meant that there was considerable noise from the heating/hot water boiler. The walking available in the area unfortunately wasn't as good as other area's in Northumberland.

- Sue, April 2019
Richard April 2019

“Very nice cottage and a good central location to visit Northumberland.”

The Kitching is very well equipped and the large bathroom is excellent. Overall the décor and furnishings are high standard. The access road is narrow but there is plenty of room on the front for a family hatchback. The owners are friendly and helpful.

- Richard, April 2019
Stephen March 2019

“Think you should make people aware of narrow street and tight turning for parking”

- Stephen, March 2019

Thank you for your feedback, we have now added further details on our property description. Property Owner
William December 2018

“Amble itself is a lovely village.”

A great location for visiting many historic sites. The owners of the cottage, have obviously thought long and hard about the needs of their guests,as there is everything there that you could possibly need.

- William, December 2018
Joy October 2018

“Offroad parking is important to us and we did park on the forecourt of the cottage, but the road is very narrow & the forecourt very small so parking was quite difficult.”

The parking sensors had to work overtime! A larger car than ours would not have fitted. There was mention of parking at rear of property (though not on bin day) but the alleyway was again very narrow and filled with bins so not really an option. Parking on the street would have been very difficult as cars were parked everywhere, down both sides of the road and on the corners. Finding a nearby space would have been a bit of a lottery.

- Joy, October 2018
Wendy September 2018

“Ideally situated for visiting the Northumberland coast, in a friendly coastal location.”

Canny Cottage was well equipped & very comfortable. Because of the narrow street & our large car, the parking was a challenge, but achievable.

- Wendy, September 2018
Ian September 2018

“The cottage was excellent, well furnished and comfortable.”

In a good location. The only downside from our point of view was my wife found the stairs a bit steep (having had both a knee and hip replacement) ,but otherwise we could not fault it.

- Ian, September 2018
Bryan Martin August 2018

“Beautifully renovated terraced cottage with amazing big bathroom and more spacious downstairs than the photos suggest.”

Amble is very down to earth really (we like that!) but the cottage added a bit of luxury. Wonderful owners who went the extra mile to be helpful, even when our kids caused a couple of mishaps!

- Bryan Martin, August 2018
Paul June 2018

“The cottage was first class and handy for the sea front and shops.”

Despite being surrounded by other properties it was amazingly quiet and had the advantage of decent off street parking. We very much enjoyed both the cottage and the interesting town of Amble.

- Paul, June 2018
Patricia June 2018

“Canny Cottage was lovely, everything you could possibly need was there.”

Amble is a lovely harbour town, people were very friendly and an ideal base for exploring Northumberland. We have already booked the same cottage for next year.

- Patricia, June 2018
Tina June 2018

“Excellent relaxing place.”

Central and convenient.

- Tina, June 2018
Carole May 2018

“Lovely clean and comfortable cottage, had everything we needed, welcome pack very much appreciated.”

Ideal location for visiting birdwatching sites in the area. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

- Carole, May 2018
Jan April 2018

“We loved Canny Cottage.”

It is very well equipped and presented to a very high standard. It is warm, light, spacious and beautifully furnished. It feels like home when you return from a day out. The location is really peaceful but within a couple of minute’s walk to the Main Street in Amble. We have already re-booked Canny Cottage for 2019.

- Jan, April 2018
Peter April 2018

“The availability of a parking space is a definite bonus as the surrounding streets are very busy.”

The parking space is quite tight to get into so you do need to be on top of your reversing skills otherwise an exceptional cottage.

- Peter, April 2018
Chris March 2018

“Excellent cottage.”

Cozy, but plenty of space and very nicely furnished. Had everything we needed and a great location. Would love to stay again.

“This was a really lovely house.”

Extremely clean and comfortable as well as being very well equipped. It was very well placed for getting out and about without having to use the car all the while. Lovely walks, Nature reserves on the doorstep and Amble has a lovely holiday feel.

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.

Please Note: Off-road parking available in the courtyard at the front of the property which is 4.9 meters long and 5.4 meters wide, the lane leading to this is 3.7 meters wide
